Moroccan international defender Chadi Riad has publicly stated that the team's primary objective is to win the FIFA World Cup. The 22-year-old, who plays for Real Betis, made the declaration in a recent interview, emphasizing the squad's ambition following their historic semi-final run in 2022.
Riad, who has earned 10 caps for Morocco, highlighted the team's growing confidence and depth. 'We have a strong group of players, and we believe we can achieve something special,' he said. The Atlas Lions are currently preparing for the 2026 World Cup, which will be co-hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
Morocco's performance in Qatar 2022, where they became the first African and Arab nation to reach the semi-finals, has set high expectations. Riad's comments reflect the team's determination to build on that success and aim for the ultimate prize in football.
